This paper explores the synergy between fuzzy set theory and genetic algorithms in the domain of epidemic modeling, shedding light on the broader challenges inherent in infectious diseases. In response to the evolving landscape of epidemiology, the study advocates for sophisticated modeling techniques to better understand and predict dynamic scenarios. The research thoroughly investigates the global stability of equilibrium solutions within a fuzzy epidemic model, accompanied by an inventive parameter estimation methodology. Utilizing Lyapunov functions, the paper establishes global stability outcomes for both disease-free and endemic equilibria. The novel approach, integrating continued fraction theory and a genetic algorithm, is applied to fit real-world epidemic data, offering insights crucial for public health planning and control measures. By addressing unexplored facets and bridging gaps in previous research, the paper contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of epidemic dynamics, providing a foundation for effective public health strategies in the face of infectious diseases. more...
